Movie: Pour 939

  • HomePage

  • Overview

    A lineup of glasses joyfully share ideas, growing in scale after each exchange. But the jubilant cycle is halted by a stubborn jar whose head is already filled. Director’s notes: "Pour 939" is an animated cartoon that was initially drawn as an exercise in visualizing the close minded, and their role in halting a fulfilling exchange of ideas. This simple metaphor was never supposed to be a stand alone film, but the more time I spent drawing it, the more I thought it could hold it's own water (or wine). Interestingly, this short film has no real story, it's simply an illustration of an idea: The moment when people who freely share thoughts are confronted with a person who is closed up. I chose the number 939 because it felt very stubborn and limited to me.
